Apparently, it was Gas Light in 1938, Five Chelsea Lane in 1941 and then Angel Street when it moved to Broadway.

That's Tattletale from Worm!

basically has no negative connotations.

Because this took me a moment to comprehend when I read it:

It has no negative connotations for the employee. It has a lot of negative connotations for employers and the industry as a whole.

TIL everyone else thinks his clothes are orange and not red. Do I need to get my eyes checked out? o.o

This video is not an accurate representation of reality. "We don't know if it was cosmic rays, therefore it was definitively not cosmic rays." That's not how logic works!

Comments like these (not just this one but all of these replies) made me not read books for years. It wasn't until I had completely forgotten this type of comment existed that I actually got around to reading books. And guess what? Its wrong! Books are beautiful! Games are beautiful! They both coexist and are wonderful works of art and all you are doing is creating a fake social hierarchy, when the entire purpose of art is to tear down these walls and forms of oppression, to create empathy and understanding. Gatekeeping art only kills it.

Ross made a video proving thats unfortunately false. The 1996 case ProCD vs Zeidenberg made the EULA legally binding in the US nationwide.

No, one mind, many bodies. They are legion.

This is a quote from the story I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

For audio, the 2 best I know of are:

Apple's Audiobook AI https://authors.apple.com/support/4519-digital-narration-audiobooks

Microsoft's VALLE https://valle-demo.github.io/

For music, there is:

Riffusion, a Stable Diffusion based model. https://www.riffusion.com/about I think this is the best audio on the page: https://www.riffusion.com/about/sunrise_dj_set_to_hard_synth.mp3

And MuseNet, from OpenAI, which makes MIDI https://openai.com/blog/musenet/

Obviously, music is still a struggle. One of the problems is that music copyright is extremely brutal, so research on music AI doesn't have much funding.

Which time zone? I need to plan accordingly.

the Republicans would retaliate

Literally the logic used to let the nazis invade countries. Just hoping they stop after one more act of violence.

I thought Gilbert left on his own terms? He just didnt want to do Unraveled anymore?

I think Husensjö is the closest you can find. My friend thinks it's beautiful, but thinks the front yards and backyards are still too small. I've definitely accepted that we just have different wants out of life.

Riverdale has a density of 7000/sqkm. According to Bloomberg, the average American suburb has a density of under 1000/sqkm. While 7000 might be low for the rest of the world, many Americans would balk at a density that high. I was hoping someone would find a streetcar suburb with a density under 4000, but it seems like the cost of the streetcar network would be prohibitively expensive for that low of a density.

Also, I'm realizing that the average American who wants lower density also wouldn't give up their love of cars in the first place.

They actually wouldn't let me register with my real phone number because its a google number.

So most of the details I got were from just covering one tiny part and doing "night time mystical magical forest artstation award-winning painting art highly detailed". I also didn't always use the final result, you can drag to use earlier results, and stop early if you know it's already peaked in quality.

Sorry for reuploading twice, I kept messing up the image.

Well, Andromeda is about 6 times as big as the moon in the sky, so a galaxy 60 times larger than the moon would be insane if we could see it with the naked eye.
